Import Tips
• Provide detailed species documentation (Picea spp.) and end-use statements to justify rough wood status
• Avoid over-squaring; dimensions must remain 'roughly squared' to prevent reclassification to sawn timber
• Include heat treatment certificates for ISPM 15 compliance if destined for packaging material production
